New frontiers in nano-scale highly nonlinear photonic circuits for System on System (SoS) Integration

Advances in System on Chip (SoC) and System in Package (SiP) that draw upon experiences gained from nano, bio and photon based technologies have created a new domain that permits fabrication of multiplicity of independent technologies as part of 3D hyper-integrated System on System (SoS) platform. Recent advances in nonlinear optics supported by fabrication and experimental work on the extreme nonlinear optical behavior of nano-scale waveguides with high linear and nonlinear index materials has opened new horizons for chip-size photonics devices. These devices can be incorporated within SoC and SoS configurations as part of the optical layer, providing an ideal platform for fabrication of compact all-in-one optoelectronic devices within the 3D multi-layered SoS technology.
